CINCINNATI – MadTree Brewing begins a new round of distribution of the extremely popular Citra High, part of its ‘High’ series of Imperial IPAs. Cans and draft will first be available beginning at noon on Thursday, October 8, at the MadTree Taproom located at 5164 Kennedy Avenue. The beer scores high praise from MadTree fans both near and far for it heavy use of American hops that give it a tropically dank flavor.

“After the success of Galaxy High and its Australian hops, we had to brew a version using some of our favorite American hops, Citra and Simcoe,” said Jeff Hunt, MadTree Brewing co-founder. “This is a big, burly Imperial IPA that focuses on potent hop aroma and flavor that is rounded out with a nice dry finish.”

The beer recently received high praise from revelers at the nation’s largest beer festival, Great American Beer Festival, held in Denver, Colorado a few weeks ago. Local beer fans have been demanding its return since the first canning run this past April. Craft beer drinkers score it a 97/100 on the popular beer review site, ratebeer.com.

Cans and growlers will be available for purchase in Taproom on Thursday, October 8, with a limit of one case of cans per person. Draft distribution to restaurants, bars, and growler stations begins the week of October 12 with cans going to retailers the week of October 19.
